Chapter 720
For the next three days, the entire capital was in turmoil.
King Yue had brought his men to break down the city gates, taking advantage of the change in the defense of the imperial guards to attack and break out of the capital. He had already turned into a rebel.
Princess Yi De was angry at the empress for murdering the heir of Princess Yue, and she left with her people in anger. She had already returned to the western part of the Mausoleum.
There was evidence that the envoys from the northern border had secretly taken revenge and set fire to the mountain while King Yue was busy plotting to avenge their princess. Now, they were imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice's Prison.
On the way back to the palace, Grand Princess Yide was stabbed and suspected that the Emperor had done it. She angrily denounced the Emperor for being unfilial and made the late Emperor feel cold.
… ….
Things came out one after another, leaving the commoners and officials of the imperial government with no time to react. The assembly went on from morning until noon, the matters were constantly discussed and discussed, but no solution could be found.
The emperor overturned two imperial cases and disgraced eight officials, silencing the court.
Gradually, rumors started to spread that the Titan King would escape out of the capital, and it was all because the Emperor could not tolerate him. He thought that the Emperor had too much power, so he used this as an excuse to secretly kill off the heir of the Titan King, forcing him to rebel, and with that, kill him.
Who would have thought that despite the toughness of King Yue's bones and the indifference he seemed to have behind him, the truth was that he had the support of the great Yi De Grand Princess. He had actually went all out and completely rebelled against the Emperor, breaking his plans.
Now that the Emperor had failed to deal with the situation, not only did he have to deal with the earlier situation, he even had to deal with the enemy, the Battle-King, who held the military power, and the enraged Grand Princess Yi De. If he couldn't, then he might not even be able to sit on the throne.
Rumors were about the royal family, so the citizens didn't dare to openly talk about it. Most of them secretly thought to themselves that even if they could say a few words, they would do it in secret, trying to keep their voices down so that no one else would hear.
However, the rumor gradually reached the emperor's ears. The emperor ordered the imperial guards to investigate the entire capital. As long as anyone talked about the arrest of the royal family, they would immediately punish them thirty times and paraded through the streets.
The more secretive the emperor was, the more it made people feel sure that the rumors were true and that they were spreading in secret.
King Yue and Mu Yunyao's reputations flourished among the commoners. Especially after the two of them gave the Neon Cloud Workshop and the Unenvious House to the imperial government to use their profits to help the commoners build water and farmland. Their reputations rose to new heights.
When they first heard that Princess Titan was pregnant, although it was during the filial period, the commoners were extremely tolerant. They would even joke about how the king was full of blood and vigor every time he was mentioned.
The Emperor scolded, the Empress secretly harmed, the Princess of Yue miscarried, the King of Yue rebelled …
With all these things added together, everyone couldn't help but feel flustered. It was as if their previous life full of hope had turned to dust in the blink of an eye. His mind was in a mess, panic gradually filled his eyes.
The emperor Ning Junyu had personally written a letter to the Northern Frontier King, denouncing the envoys of the Northern Frontier. She had even threatened to make the Northern Frontier's envoy apologize to the king, otherwise she would kill Tu Ma and the others to protect the dignity of the Northern Frontier.
However, this action was purposefully pushed aside and blamed on the north. It was to stabilize the hearts of the people and the government.
After carefully considering the situation, he chose to believe in Tu Ao and re-activated the hidden spies set up by the Guo Family. He then called for the people who were stationed in the Dai Dynasty to take this opportunity to make the Dai Dynasty fall into chaos.
In August, the autumn was cool and refreshing.
If this was in the past, the common folk of the capital had already started preparing for the Mid-Autumn Festival, but now they were all gloomy and gloomy.
In the imperial palace, the emperor was sitting behind a royal table with an anxious expression on his face.
Xu Li brewed some tea and brought it to him. After placing it at the side, he carefully didn't dare to make a sound.
"Xu Li, is there any news of our King?"
"Reporting to your majesty, for the time being, I haven't."
The emperor frowned as he stood up and paced back and forth impatiently.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared, causing the emperor to abruptly stop in his tracks. "Wei Yi, you're back. Did Fourth Brother send any news over?"
"Reporting to your majesty, His Majesty King Yue has safely escaped the range of the mountains, and has begun his journey towards the west of Guangdong Province."
The emperor heaved a sigh of relief as a hint of happiness flashed across his eyes. "Is everything alright, fourth brother?"
"Other than some light injuries, the rest of the preparations that King Fu had made are not serious."
"That's good," the Emperor said happily. He was finally able to calm down. "Is everything alright with Imperial Aunt?"
"The Grand Princess and the rest have successfully arrived at the Mausoleum of Books. Five thousand soldiers have been sent to the area around the palace. In addition, the palace has a high terrain, making it easy to defend and attack. As long as the army does not attack, we can ensure safety."
"En, you go down and rest first. Afterwards, supervise the capital, especially the people of the north. Don't let them do anything bad in the chaos."
"Yes."
After the guard retreated, the emperor paced back and forth a few more steps before turning around to instruct Xu Li. "Give the order that those who are sent to deliver the items to the palace must be the most reliable. The food and items that are sent to them must be carefully inspected.
"Yes, your servant will set it up right away." The Emperor nodded his head and picked up the memorial that was placed on the table. A cold light flashed in his eyes, "This time, it was for the northern border. A group of people's hearts were also tested.
The moment he lost his power, he added fuel to the fire and tried his best to punish him. He even tried to scheme against Princess Yi De with his words. Such a petty person's face really made people hate him to the extreme.
At this time, within the palace, Mu Yunyao had also received the news that King Yue was safe and sound, and her mood immediately relaxed.
The Mausoleum's West Hanging Palace is located in the Mausoleum of Mausoleum, in the middle of the mountain, it can be said to be close to the mountain and waterfront scenery beautiful.
Mu Yunyao was walking around the surroundings. Looking at the beautiful scenery, she couldn't help but reveal a smile.
Seeing her appearance, Poison Lady relaxed, but after walking a few steps, seeing the person in front who was directing the maid to tidy up the flowers, she couldn't help but furrow her brows, "Yunyao, that Xu Qi also came. He's been following by the side of Grand Princess Yi all these days, do you have any thoughts?" Mu Yunyao turned around and casually touched the flourishing chrysanthemum at the side. She couldn't help but smile, "Her father is grandmother's foster son, so even if grandmother doesn't say it out loud, in her heart, she's still considered half a granddaughter. Moreover, she came in the name of taking care of grandmother.
"Wouldn't it make him look petty if he rushed down?" Hmph, I don't believe that you can't tell, but that she simply had some ulterior motives. The person she wants to take care of isn't Grand Princess Yi, but your husband, King Fu! " The Poison Matriarch was indignant and discontent. She liked to see Mu Yunyao smile without a care in the world. Seeing her happy and without worry, the regret in her heart that she had always felt seemed to have been pacified.
